Rear wiper motor removal
Made a attempt at removing the rear wiper motor and wiper from the back hatch. I have a 2014 LE hatch. I cant seem to get the wiper arm to come off the motor. I know its splined in, but when I take the 10mm nut off, I cant budge it. If anyone knows your help is greatly appreciated.

Its pretty hard since its never been removed before. You might have to spray a little WD40 first, wrap tape or something around the splines, use pliers or vise grip (without smashing the splines) and pull with all your might. Or try to lightly tap the bottom part with a wedge until it dislodges.

Thanks guys! I got it off with a gear puller looking tool! Works great. To anyone who does this, don't use a screwdriver or pliers, the hatch dents very easily!

Sorry, I gave bad advice.
Curious, why do you want to remove the wiper anyway? |

If it looks like a gear puller, and works like a gear puller...
